1. Insert your Snow Leopard DVD.
2. Open /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app.
3. In the left side of the window, select the “Mac OS X Install DVD”.
4. Click “New Image” from the Disk Utility toolbar and select where you want to save the temporary image. For “Image Format”, choose “DVD/CD master” and for “Encryption”, choose “none”.
5. The image extension in the “Save As” box will be .cdr (this is what you want) — click “Save”.
6. Once the temporary image is created, it will show up on the left side of the Disk Utility window. Select it.

“The Wrongulator is no ordinary calculator, its actually the world’s worst calculator as it never gives the right answer, ever!  If your calculator has been exchanged for this one then every single calculation you’ve entered in it has been wrong. It is perhaps the cruelest practical joke you could inflict on your office colleague and the chances are, without being told, they’ll probably never guess….well not before it’s too late anyway! Mwhahahaha!”

“If you have been troubled by recent revelations that your cell phone can be used to reveal details of your personal life, this item will probably boost your concern level. It turns out that there is actually a commercially available device specifically designed for sucking data out of your handheld. In fact, Cellebrite Ltd. (www.cellebrite.com) has just released Version 2.0 of its Universal Forensic Extraction Device (UFED), designed to provide “law enforcement and government intelligence agencies with new capabilities for improved extraction, retrieval, and analysis of mobile phone data.”

Three new features are included in the latest release. The UFED Physical Analyzer is a parsing tool and report generator that offers upgraded ability to analyze and parse iPhone and Blackberry devices. It includes an instant search function, plug-in support, and Python scripting. The support base has been enhanced to include nearly 6,000 devices, including Samsung, LG, and Sony Ericsson products, and “historically challenging” CDMA memory dump capability has been expanded by 200 devices. Finally, V. 2 includes the UFED Phone Detective which lets users instantly identify the specific model phone you are using.

The bottom line is that the product “enables military, law enforcement, and intelligence agencies to easily extract deleted data, passwords, contacts, text messages, call logs, emails, GPS locations, web history, calendar entries, and much more. New parsing capabilities such as iPhone Skype support, browser cookies, Wi-Fi and cell tower locations, and more make it the most advanced end-to-end solution available to the mobile forensic community.” At $4,799 a pop, it’s not exactly cheap, but probably well within the budget of your local constabulary.”

Clean My Wall uses a JS bookmarklet to delete posts from your Facebook wall.  It takes time – in fact, if you’ve been using Facebook for a while it can take a very long time but it does save you from deleting posts one-by-one.  While there’s no guaranty that Facebook hasn’t stored the wall post data for later abuse use it can’t hurt to clean up the mess.  It also limits the amount of data mining that a human reading your wall can perform.

UPDATE:  According to the website, “Due to a lack of time, cleanmywall is no longer supported.”

“My brother’s iPod was stolen earlier today (set his bag down and left it unwatched for 2 seconds, came back and it was gone). We didn’t have the serial number, however, I was able to find where iTunes stores every serial number of every iPod that has ever been synced with that iPod. Just go to ~\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPodDevices.xml, and it lists all serial numbers. Then you can check each serial number here to ascertain which one you’re looking for based on the model: [selfsolve.apple.com]“

To quote his post:

regdbdump /usr/lib64/crda/regulatory.bin gives me an editable version of the database. I didn’t feel like limiting myself, so I replaced this:

country 00:
	(2402.000 - 2472.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 20.00)
	(2457.000 - 2482.000 @ 20.000), (3.00, 20.00), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
	(2474.000 - 2494.000 @ 20.000), (3.00, 20.00), NO-OFDM, PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
	(5170.000 - 5250.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 20.00), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
	(5735.000 - 5835.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 20.00), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
 
country US:
	(2402.000 - 2472.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 27.00)
	(5170.000 - 5250.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 17.00)
	(5250.000 - 5330.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 20.00), DFS
	(5490.000 - 5600.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 20.00), DFS
	(5650.000 - 5710.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 20.00), DFS
	(5735.000 - 5835.000 @ 40.000), (3.00, 30.00)

with this:

country 00:
  (2402.000 - 2494.000 @ 40.000), (N/A, 30.00)
  (4910.000 - 5835.000 @ 40.000), (N/A, 30.00)
 
country US:
  (2402.000 - 2494.000 @ 40.000), (N/A, 30.00)
  (4910.000 - 5835.000 @ 40.000), (N/A, 30.00)

and then I converted the database to its binary form with db2bin.py which one can find in the wireless-regdb source code releases. Copied the new database over to my OpenWRT machine, restarted it, dmesg, presto:

In short:

1. Download binary database from router
2. Get the tools mentioned in the article
3. Use the tools to dump the database to text format
4. Edit the database
5. Use the tools to convert the database back to binary format
6. Upload DB to router
